Bitter Sweet Blend

WE Should call this one Independence! Because it can possibly free us from the strangle hold of Big Pharma and their over medicating practices and their all about the money bs! We were really lucky to buy a property years ago that had the amazing Yarrow growing there. We have propagated it to our home site and it is AMAZING!!! Ginger is another one of those added crops that is so easy to grow. The only thing on the ingredient list that we don't grow at our place is the cinnamon, but give us a bit...lol

Yarrow (Achillea millefolium) has been used for thousands of years for its potential health benefits. In fact, its genus name, Achillea, refers to the warrior Achilles in Greek mythology, as he used yarrow to treat his soldiers’ wounds. Studies indicate that this plant may have various benefits as an herbal tea, extract, or essential oil.

Here are 5 emerging benefits and uses of yarrow tea. Studies suggest that yarrow leaf extract and ointment may boost wound healing. yarrow tea may provide several digestive benefits, such as combatting ulcers and IBS symptoms. Yarrow tea contains flavonoids and alkaloids that may relieve symptoms of depression and anxiety. Research suggests that yarrow may reduce symptoms of certain brain disorders, such as epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer’s, and Parkinson’s. Yarrow tea may reduce both liver and skin inflammation, but research is currently limited.

Rosemary is a rich source of antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds, which are thought to help boost the immune system and improve blood circulation. Laboratory studies have shown rosemary to be rich in antioxidants, which play an important role in neutralizing harmful particles called free radicals.

Stinging nettle (Urtica dioica and the closely related Urtica urens) has a long medicinal history. In medieval Europe, it was used as a diuretic (to rid the body of excess water) and to treat joint pain.

Lemon balm (Melissa officinalis), a member of the mint family, is considered a calming herb. It was used as far back as the Middle Ages to reduce stress and anxiety, promote sleep, improve appetite, and ease pain and discomfort from indigestion (including gas and bloating, as well as colic).

Ginger is loaded with antioxidants, compounds that prevent stress and damage to your body's DNA. They may help your body fight off chronic diseases like high blood pressure, heart disease, and diseases of the lungs, plus promote healthy aging.
